Cardiac Action

The article provides an overview of the principles in anti-arrhythmic drug prescribing. The cardiac action potential is explained, followed by general principles involved in treating arrhythmias and prescribing decisions. An overview of the five classifications of anti-arrhythmic drugs is given, with examples of the main drugs in the classification and principles to consider within each. Finally, anticoagulation is reviewed, being a cornerstone prescribing decision-making in the most common arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation.
